The Credit Hostage Crisis

I applaud the cold feet of yesterday. I have been reading and listening to "Wall Street folks" of one kind or another for several years. It has cost me a lot of money as it has everyone I know. I don't know about you personally but Wall Street and legions of other hustlers went on a enormous party with absolutely no rules as to behavior. Of course, it was done on the money they bilked from amateur investors, like me, who knew just enough to be suckers. They were greatly assisted by other legions of media talking heads who, essentially, provided free advertising for the gigantic scam. I do not think our distrust is misplaced. I think it is entirely justified. I am retired in a double wide trailer while the ones who scammed me are retiring to expensive mansions. It was one helluva party, millions of us paid for it and the hangover will be just as enormous. Lets get on with it.

A Resolution Trust Corp. 'Solution'?

I feel like I'm living in a world gone mad. Maybe Alice had something going after all. Then, again, I remember having ideas like this decades ago, after a couple of joints of course.
